    Considering the mishaps with Josh Barnett, do you think that Fedor may reconsider his position with Affliction?

    i think after this fight fedors contract is up with affliction,i am prety sure that the ufc is going to make a run at getting him to sign with them,i heard they were wanting him for a 6 fight contract and he didnt want to take that many fights cuz it would interfere with his sambo but then again this is just a rumor more than likely so dont take it to heart

    He's done with affliction after this either way. His contract expires and he can't hold affliction on his own. I dunno where' he will go but I sure as hell hope it's UFC.

    No. Not unless Dana White wants to open up a can of worms.

    I think it would make logical sense for him to go to UFC. He will get paid more money and there are bigger fights to have at UFC then Affliction. Other than Josh Barnett, who else is there at Affliction? Brett Rodgers?? Going to the UFC could set up possibily the biggest Heavyweight match of all-time, against Brock Lesnar. I hope Dana White does not F&ck this up!:patsch

    It's very possible. The sparse HW division to be unified. Arlovski, Rogers and Big Tim who else is there? UFC seems he most logical choice. He would probably be smart to fight once or twice to get acquainted with the cage.

    no matter how much they try to pretend otherwise the UFC want him desperately

    they'll make exceptions to their usual BS stipulations

    the whole MMA World wants to see Fedor Lesnar

    maybe a 3 fight deal - a tune up, a fight with Lesnar, and if he wins, a defence of his belt

    I think the perfect way to build up the fight is give Fedor a fight with Randy Couture assuming he defeats Nogueira if he doesnt give him Frank Mir. This gives Fedor a dangerous opponet that he should still dominate yet at the same time prove himself to people who dont know him well by beating yet ANOTHER UFC Heavyweight Champion. Im cool with a first UFC non title fight because Brock will probablly be stuck in with Velasquez-Carwin winner first and im sure he smashes both.

    Exactly what i was just thinking. Couture would be the Perfect first fight for Fedor in the Octagon

    If he comes through that, feed him to the Lesbo

    Then if he comes through her, he still has to make a defense

    Makes perfect sense :)

    Im waiting for the 12 post that says Fedor would just kill Randy and Mir so whats the point ? Fedor would also kill Brock or anyone else out there but they fight the fights for a reason.

    I was actually thinking the same thing that would be perfect give Brock another tough fight and more training time and let Randy get the fight they had promised him. not to mention like was said give time to promote the fight and Fedor.
